Can anyone give me some ideas on how I might be able to create the look of a solid rectangle of black toner printed on paper? Or in other words a photocopy effect.
Here's an example: http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/thumb_106/ ... tnS5hm.jpg

Re: Toner on paper
Not a very good approximation, but try
convert -size 1x300 gradient: -solarize 50% -level 0x50% -dither Riemersma -colors 8 -scale 300x300! -auto-level tmp3.png
You could try mixing a column of random numbers to the 1D image before the -scale 300x300!. That might add some more randomness to the result.
